Kisai Uzumaki Watch

Tuesday, June 19, 2012

Timepieces nowadays that one wears on the wrist usually no
longer just tell time. There are now more and more wrist watches out
there that makes telling time somewhat a challenge. Just taking a quick
look at the Kisai Uzumaki Watch and you'll easily get the meaning of it
all.

The Uzumaki Watch is another interesting wristwatch design
coming from Japanese watch maker Kisai. According to them, “Uzumaki” is
the Japanese term for “whirlpool” and that is exactly how this watch
tells the time. Wearers can tell the time by looking at the spiraling
color display.

The Kisai Uzumaki Watch comes with a display
composed of two colored swirls. The outside circle stands for the hour
and the inner circle stands for the minutes. The sole hand found in the
watch indicates the seconds. The watch is made of stainless steel with a
custom made acrylic lens made out of concentric circles, imitating that
whirlpool look as its name indicates. The Kisai Uzumaki Watch is
available at Tokyo Flash at a regular price of US$129.
